Title: Kind Of A Dumb Question
Post by: chrysalis on April 29, 2010, 03:20:24 AM
As I understand it, you only need a doctors note for SRS and hormones right? FFS, trach shave etc. fall under the elective plastic umbrella as I recall. I'm planning on getting electro as soon as I can afford it, and I'm trying to plot my spending over the next ten or so years. I'm looking at leaving SRS for last.

Just a thought here.


There is nothing to stop a 'male' having a boob job, if you can pay privately. There is also nothing to stop you having facial surgery of your choice, again caveat that you can pay. OK for some reason you cannot have the growth removed. But you can everything else. Is that true?

Thoughts?

Hormones can be found if you know the right people. Though it's not always easy as I understand. That one girl in Transgeneration had notorious trouble finding hers.
